This may seem a stupid question but here it goes.....
I have finally made up my mind to try my hand at live plants . After some advice and recommendations from Rookie , I bought some Java Fern . I am going to try and get my hands on some Anacharis this week . But here is my question , how long does it take them to show signs that they are doing well , such as yellow leaves ? The Java Fern has been in there for a full week as of yesterday and they are still so green that they do not look real . I had one little one that broke off one of the main plants when I was weighing it down , I guess it's called a "daughter" (is this the correct name/usage?) . I tucked it in a crevice of lava rock and it's leaves have grown quit a bit since last Saturday .
